Went to the JobCentre today, and the Army were there going "Be the Best" ... now T-Mobile just told me I didn't have the qualifications to sell phones, Microsoft said I didn't have the qualifications to answer the phones, and the Army want to let me loose with a machine gun?

Speaking of Lower Schlobovia (other thread...) while digging out the shadow photo I also found this:

Is this for real? ---- i.e., did Tadjikistan actually issue a stamp with Beth's picture, or was this just printed by someone to sell on eBay?

Hehe!

If it's a spoof it is very professional looking, i.e. beautifully designed.

My money is on it being perfectly genuine! It is not as if Beth had such a huge following that it would be worth someone's while producing fake memorabilia of this kind.

Has anyone ever come across any Beth fakes?

I think it's a bespoke piece. I've seen similar ones with REM and others one it. Interesting piece though.

You'd be suprised some of the stuff I have seen over the years (and some of which I bought) ... mugs, mousemats, those Andy Warhol style pop art prints. I do remember someone bootlegging t-shirts too.

It's time for Go Quickly to dig out those Beth buttons from a few years back. I do believe Ali would buy them all.
Myself, I would generously bid on a pair of the godess'es soiled undergarments.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy.

Yeah, it was something like Harp magazine, or something around the time of CR

That's a great t-shirt :D

That was from the same set when she was sitting with her feet up (and I think holding a guitar, and with a pair of sunglasses) Never was able to read the caption on the tshirt though, as it was folded up, but well cool.

That shirt was worn during Beth's Rolling Stone feature. It resulted in three of the greatest videos one can imagine.
I believe the thre songs were Central Reservation, Concrete Sky, and one other tha slips my mind right now. But all three were of finest quality.

I looked it up, and found the last video in that session. It is Paris Train. The vids feature Beth with short cropped hair that is dyed red. And she wears the afformentioned Marine Corp shirt.
I must say that these videos are absolutely breathtaking...enough to bring a big old softie like myself to tears.

That's the one. Just found the magazine. I probably lost the videos when the drive went bang. Hopefully I still have them on another computer.
